It only needs to last until November.

Kinja'd!!!

Wish me luck. Going to go pick it up Monday. Haven’t looked at it yet but I’ll be coming armed with a UHaul. It’s a $250 car that’s apparently been sitting behind an “anw” all winter that I pretty much already bought site unseen over Facebook. Only needs a charged battery and a door hinge welded back on but otherwise supposedly works great. How could this possibly go wrong?

I’ll keep you guys updated.

Also yes, I plugged in my phone shortly therafter.

Stout ass drivetrain in a vehicle that rides and handles like an ox cart.

Why a trailer? Couldn’t it just be jump started if all it needs is a battery?

My $600 ‘97 Blazer was an amazing beater. Never let me down, and took me on a 10,000km road trip

Don’t watch the latest Roadkill... Freiberger and Finnegan reenact the copier scene from Office Space with the Rotsun’s 4.3.

My work term ends and I move back to Manitoba I guess. Don’t really have plans yet.

Too late. It came out like, weeks ago. I frankly don’t care that much, it’s just a set of wheels. I’m curious though to see if I too can break the crank in two with a way-too-big turbo.

No plates on it? That’s my guess. Not much air in the tires either from the sounds of it but I’ll bring my compressor. I asked if it rolled well enough to put on a dolly and they said “yeah the tires are just flat from sitting.” Supposedly “everything else works”. That’s the only stipulation I had, if it didn’t start I didn’t want it.

Yeah I’m not too concerned. Seems like there’s a couple small issues and they’re just desperate to get rid of it.
